How can I create a great Personal Avatar?
How can I create a great Personal Avatar?
Updated over 3 months ago

When creating a Personal Avatar, there are several tips you can follow to ensure you get the best version of your avatar. We recommend:

  • Not wearing anything that covers the mouth, such as face masks.

  • Keeping your hands away from the front of your mouth during the recording.

  • If wearing glasses, make sure to avoid having glare on them, whilst recording.

  • Wear plain clothes - detailed patterns around the face/neck area can be distorted on the Personal Avatar.

  • A simple background around your neck/jaw area to avoid avatar distortion.

  • Not to over exaggerate expressions when filming as this can cause distortion to the personal avatar

  • When filming from a side angle, ensure both eyes are visible.

  • If you are using our Upload footage option, ensure the recording is one continuous recording and not multiple cuts of a video stitched together.

  • When creating a selfie video for submission, ensure your face is not to close to the camera.

  • For all recordings, there should be only one person's voice in the recording

  • Speak naturally and clearly, whilst recording to ensure Synthesia captures your voice correctly.
